Mindfulness Therapy
Mindfulness is the ability to focus attention in the present moment while being relaxed and nonjudgmental. This means one sits in awareness of thoughts but does not judge or react to the thoughts – just observe them. The act of being mindful takes practice but is quite useful in helping individuals control their thoughts – instead of being controlled by their thoughts. Through Mindfulness, one becomes less reactive and more intentional, focus is improved, and stress is reduced.
